Chapter 1289: The Carpenter
When Yuan Zhou came to the backyard, even the carpenter had already made the frames of several bowl racks, but the ground was unusually clean.
Generally speaking, carpentry requires cutting the wood, and then using a planer to smooth the wood, whether it is for a bracket or a partition.
At this time, there will naturally be wood chips on the ground, but now there are no wood chips on the ground, that is, there is no other leftover scraps, and they are very clean.
By the way, even the white sawdust that rubbed the outer layer of corruption, Yuan Zhou didn't see it on the ground.
"Senior brother, you're here. Ma Xiao greeted first.
The carpenter on the side was lowering his head and carefully comparing the size of the cut wood, and did not look up.
"I'm done over there, I'm here to help. Yuan Zhou nodded.
"By the way, just now the master asked me to find something to put sawdust, I used this to put it, senior brother, can you see it?" Ma Xiao saw that even the carpenter didn't need help for the time being, and immediately pointed to a few new bamboo dustpans in the yard.
The bamboo-woven dustpan was blue-green, each one the size of a millstone, which was originally stored on the first floor of the tavern after Yuan Zhou himself had woven it in the summer, and there were only six in total.
But now it's all taken out, and now it's filled with the missing scraps and sawdust, all neatly packed.
The sawdust is packed with a dustpan, the leftovers are packed with a dustpan, and the offcuts are also classified according to different sizes.
"Yes. Yuan Zhou nodded.
"That's good, these leftovers are also good things, and they can't be lost. Ma Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and said seriously.
"It's a good thing. Yuan Zhou nodded.
"Hmph, I don't take it away when I know it's a good thing. At this time, even the carpenter looked up and said angrily.
"Isn't there a master here? Yuan Zhou turned his head and said.
"Get over here and help, I'll be done early and I'll be out early. After even the carpenter finished speaking, he paused and then muttered in a low voice: "I see you angry." ”
Ma Xiao couldn't help but smile, and Yuan Zhou, who had always had a quick ear, pretended not to hear it and went directly to help.
The afternoon was long, because he needed to make a bowl rack, Yuan Zhou didn't go out to carve, and spent the afternoon in the backyard of the tavern.
What is rare is that Wuhai on the second floor opposite saw that Yuan Zhou did not appear in the afternoon and did not come to find anyone, it is estimated that he did not smell the fragrance, so he knew that Yuan Zhou was not cooking, so he did not come to find someone.
The open-frame bowl rack made by the carpenter according to Yuan Zhou's requirements is a piece of cake for an old carpenter like Lian Carpenter.
No, or it's not any serious furniture at all, if it weren't for the fact that the wood used to make the bowl rack is so good, even the carpenter wouldn't look at such a small job, such a small job is generally for carpentry apprentices to practice, even Ma Xiao would not be involved in such a simple job now.
Yes, five racks, one of which is still a deformed rack, but after a morning and half an afternoon, even the carpenter has made all the frames.
It's taken so long because this wood is rosewood, and even the carpenter is careful and careful when making it, and it took so long to make it all in an afternoon if it usually takes five racks.
The rudimentary yellow rosewood bowl rack is a magnificent purple color, and it is still a little rough because it is not sandpapered, but it does not affect its beauty.
The beautiful peacock texture on it can be clearly seen, such as the pillar of the bowl rack, even the carpenter paid great attention to leaving a complete peacock pattern when cutting, and it looks like a peacock with various shapes wrapped around the pillar from a distance.
The wooden frame of the flat plate also grows with staggered peacock patterns, and if you look closely, you can even see that there is a peacock with a different shape on each wooden board.
"I've already got all the mortise and tenon fits, when will your place be renovated. Even the carpenter looked at the parts of the rack that were placed on the grease fabric, and said.
"There should be two more days, I let it be painted directly with quick-drying paint, there is no decoration on the wall, the speed is still very fast, it takes some time to get through the second floor and then renovate. Yuan Zhou explained.
"What more decoration, this is the best decoration. Even the carpenter pointed to the bowl rack on the ground.
"Yes, I think so too. Yuan Zhou sighed.
"Hmph. Even the carpenter snorted coldly and did not speak.
"All that's left is sandpaper, and you have to take your time and work slowly. Even the carpenter wiped his hands and circled the greased cloth rack.
"Well, then master, let's polish it tomorrow. Yuan Zhou looked at the sky, and then said.
"That's nature, polish it tomorrow," said the carpenter, nodding his head, and then continued, "Anyway, I'll use the saw today, so I'll make some more small things, lest you spoil the good things again." ”
"Are you talking about the leftovers over there?" Yuan Zhou pointed to a dustpan of large and small wooden forecherches piled on the side.
"Yes, I'll make a small box for you with a large piece, and you can use it to hold sawdust, and that sawdust is also a good thing, you can keep it yourself. Even the carpenter said.
"Good. Yuan Zhou should take a bite.
In fact, even if the carpenter doesn't say it, Yuan Zhou will do it, because he has long planned to deal with these leftovers to the carpenter.
Although the carpenter is not a sculptor, as an old carpenter, he can also make delicate little things, and these delicate little things echo the carpenter's wish to collect.
Even the carpenter could not bear to destroy this precious wood, because he paid special attention to the leftovers left behind when cutting, and it was not strange and could not be formed.
But because the internal pattern of the heartwood is very beautiful, even if the outer skin has been corrupted and peeled off, but when I saw the outer layer of these heartwood, I found that the Huanghuali provided by this system is only generally very straight, but in fact there are still many potholes on the outer layer that are not so smooth and straight.
It is these unevenness that cause the beautiful peacock pattern inside, which is disliked by none of the three people present, but they just carefully cut the excess of the uneven outer layer and then flatten it, and finally reveal the internal pattern.
The technical content of the bowl rack is really not high, and the remaining half of the afternoon, that is, after the bowl rack is made, from three o'clock in the afternoon, even the carpenter once again showed Yuan Zhou a high-level carpenter's level.
Between three o'clock and five o'clock and two hours, even the carpenter was very fast, and his hands were extremely steady to make five joints with mortise and tenon, without the use of a nail or adhesive, the size of a small box like a paper box.
And Yuan Zhou followed up to make three such small boxes.
Ma Xiao on the side was naturally not allowed to get started, so he kept handing over the tools on the side, and then watched the two of them do it, without a little impatience, very serious.
"Master, let's stay and have dinner together. After Yuan Zhou finished speaking, he didn't wait for the carpenter to answer and added: "The bread you eat at noon, you can't just eat dinner, I'll make you a meal myself when the business hours are over." ”
"Okay, just when you go to open a shop, I'll polish this wooden box again. Yuan Zhou said this, even the carpenter did not refuse, and nodded in response.
"Okay, then please trouble the junior brother to take care of the master, and I'll open the store. Yuan Zhou said to Ma Xiao.
"Senior brother, don't worry. Ma Xiao hurriedly responded.
Then Yuan Zhou got up and opened the door in the backyard, and then went back upstairs from the backyard of the kitchen god shop to wash.
After all, there were sawdust on the carpentry after an afternoon, even if Yuan Zhou knew that the system would clean it up automatically, he didn't pass through the kitchen full of kitchen utensils and ingredients, but went directly upstairs through the back door.
